Door striker bolts

Post by NC72crew »

Does anyone know where to get new striker bolts for the door latch? I can find them for 73 up and 66 down but not for the bumps. I would like to replace mine with new ones as i have a few that are bad. I can get decent used ones but my OCD kicks in sometimes. :lol:

Wow...I just searched NPD/MAC's / Dennis Carpenter and LMC with no luck! :eek:
I would've never thought as it seemed like I replace mine in BC #16 with new. I'm thinking that i used a set of dent era instead? :hmm:
Do you have a dent side close to you to measure? And also be advised that you can adjust the strike around 1/4" up/down and sideways to make the door close better most times. :wink:

Also try Green Sales if price is no concern. :D

Part no. 40-2769 from LMC. Yellow dichromate finish and 12 point socket head looks to be about as true to original as possible. I put them on my restoration.
